But either way, you do you. It’s nice to have options...

Only at Spirit? I came across a thread once about American guys picking apart an AA branded Breitling watch. I don't really think this jacket is nearly as bad a topic since it is a visible uniform item and honestly looks pretty nice. The price is indeed a bit on the steep side. Is it actually available without the liner?

Lol I should remove Spirit then. “Only Pilots will get fired up about a new uniform jacket option...”

ALPA should have had input (maybe they did but once again didn’t inform anyone) into the choices.
Seriously. Would it be so hard to put together 5-10 outfits that the company approved and let the pilots choose the final ones.
We did have input. We have a chair of the uniform committee who had to veto some seriously poor fashion proposals from the woman representing the company on branding that would have had us wearing yellow accents on our uniforms like the flight attendants from the same sub standard vendor.

If I remember correctly from a conversation I had with someone briefed on the uniform discussions with management is that the compromise to get the light shell jacket is that we’ll be wearing wings on our shirts (requested by Ted) and possibly yellow stripes on our epaulets to go along with black pants from a high quality vendor.

I highly doubt Ted cares about how we look or what our uniforms are. He cares about spreadsheets, stock price and quarterly performance.

Sounds like someone wants to be a delta pilot.
